spndnchz Posted April 29, 2011 Author Report Posted April 29, 2011 When you hear Regier live...you want to scratch your own eardrums out. It's been 13 years, and half this board could have telegraphed the problems this team has run into over the past. Minus 2 years of Hasek, and 2 years of the NHL flipping the rulebook 180 degrees....the tandem of Regier and Ruff is HORRIBLE! Darcy didn't hold himself accountable for anything today. It was "The NHL needs to make Ryan's head safer." "We need to eliminate 500 hits for the sake of the game..still plenty of hits to go around." "The grass isn't greener on the other side." Holy cow.....I want to get excited about the future of this team, but it's like going into a whorehouse and getting the female Steven Wright. I don't blame people for getting sick of hearing other people complain. But I get sick of watching the same show get a free pass for probably the better half of most of the years you guys have been alive. Have u listened to other teams end of year "conferences"? Same thing.
wonderbread Posted April 29, 2011 Report Posted April 29, 2011 Somewhere in Northwestern Pennsylvania PA is seething.
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted April 29, 2011 Report Posted April 29, 2011 Have u listened to other teams end of year "conferences"? Same thing. WHO?......WHAT?......WHERE?.....
X. Benedict Posted April 29, 2011 Report Posted April 29, 2011 Have u listened to other teams end of year "conferences"? Same thing. I prefer boring to Larry Quinn saying things like....we were never going to not match the offer, and tipping the hand. Conferences should be pretty boring by design. The injury stuff today was pretty interesting....always interesting to hear the stuff they had to sit on.
X. Benedict Posted April 29, 2011 Report Posted April 29, 2011 Somewhere in Northwestern Pennsylvania PA is seething. Is he okay?
wonderbread Posted April 29, 2011 Report Posted April 29, 2011 Is he okay? No one seems to know D4rk alluded to him taking a break from the board but this is downright odd. :unsure:
deluca67 Posted April 29, 2011 Report Posted April 29, 2011 No one seems to know D4rk alluded to him taking a break from the board but this is downright odd. :unsure: I tried to send him a PM just now and it said he was unable to use the PM system. Why would that be?
dEnnis the Menace Posted April 29, 2011 Report Posted April 29, 2011 No one seems to know D4rk alluded to him taking a break from the board but this is downright odd. :unsure: I personally liked some of his input, and the twists he added to conversations...it seems almost too quiet without him around...
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted April 29, 2011 Report Posted April 29, 2011 I tried to send him a PM just now and it said he was unable to use the PM system. Why would that be? He was banned, but decided not to come back after the ban. I'm sure he may think about it as the season hits....but in all honesty, some of us can only say the same things so many times before you just say F'IT and go find a different hobby.
deluca67 Posted April 29, 2011 Report Posted April 29, 2011 I personally liked some of his input, and the twists he added to conversations...it seems almost too quiet without him around... He's a first ballot Poster Hall of Famer.

One funny part is when Lindy threw Connolly under the bus again. "He had a separated sternum....and some other stuff up in that area."

Partly why I stopped listening to the pressers and let you all update me B-) I never would've thought to compare the team to the bolded statement haha but in all seriousness, I am cautiously optimistic for this team. The constant complaining though isn't fixing anything, and I let it get to me today...Friday non the less
dEnnis the Menace Posted April 29, 2011 Report Posted April 29, 2011 He's a first ballot Poster Hall of Famer. Before or after Lindy?
deluca67 Posted April 29, 2011 Report Posted April 29, 2011 He was banned, but decided not to come back after the ban.

Is that what this board has come to? Considering the lack of any interesting new posters, Weave being the exception, you would think this board would want to keep posters like PA around.

I'll just assume he was poisoned by some hydrofracking water and lost his mind.
X. Benedict Posted April 29, 2011 Report Posted April 29, 2011 One funny part is when Lindy threw Connolly under the bus again. "He had a separated sternum....and some other stuff up in that area." That did make me chuckle. "other stuff"
deluca67 Posted April 29, 2011 Report Posted April 29, 2011 Before or after Lindy? Good thing we have humor like this to fill the void. :doh:

What? banned WTF. <_<
Weave Posted April 29, 2011 Report Posted April 29, 2011 Darcy didn't hold himself accountable for anything today. It was "The NHL needs to make Ryan's head safer." "We need to eliminate 500 hits for the sake of the game..still plenty of hits to go around." "The grass isn't greener on the other side." Please, please, pretty please tell me that this is hyperbole and Darcy didn't really say this.

I'm sure he may think about it as the season hits....but in all honesty, some of us can only say the same things so many times before you just say F'IT and go find a different hobby. Are bleak outlooks bannable these days? I can't imagine PA posting something so grevious towards another poster that a ban was warranted. Especially after seeing some of the game day posts at the end of the season and in the playoffs. I mean, if calling someone a cork soaker (or some variation of it) won't get you banned, what does?
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted April 29, 2011 Report Posted April 29, 2011 Please, please, pretty please tell me that this is hyperbole and Darcy didn't really say this. He said something along those lines...and he's said it before. The NHL needs to eliminate the 100 or so hits that cause concussions, so they probably have to make it so that 500 or 1000 tough hits are elimintaed, but there would still be 90% of the hits allowed. Welcome to the WNBA!
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted April 29, 2011 Report Posted April 29, 2011 What? banned WTF. <_< I will not get into details. If the main parties want to discuss, that is fine. I don't know what really happened because I didn't see it.

I will not get into details. If the main parties want to discuss, that is fine. I don't know what really happened because I didn't see it. Is this a theory, or do you know this to be the case? Can a mod confirm whether he was banned? If so, what did he do to get banned?
